$5, $450 and $850 cleared pretty quickly. Just did a $1200 and it's pending for about an hour. Seems like $1k might be the magic spot. Not sure if multiple transactions going to/over $1k would avoid this or not, but i would assume no. $1k/day seems ok with me if this works
Same for me. Took 3 days to clear $1k, but high 3 digit payments went through pretty quick. Sent almost $3k in a day between the 3 payments. Very into this service. I wish we knew more clearly what potential limits or "abuse" is according to Google, b/c obviously I want to maximize it - but at the same time, this is a super convenient service - even better than Paypal/AZP that could last for years.
Where did you folks see that there is a trial period that is insulated from processing fees?
There are two places you can see that it's marked as a "trial" period. One is when you click on the "?" mark next to the payment method that shows a table explaining the fees (see the first two screenshots; the second is the modal window that pops up with the table).
Another is when you click on the payment method drop down and pick one of your credit cards; the fee will be crossed out and it will show "No fee" instead (see the third screenshot).
